Hongkong General Chamber of Commerce.

Hongkong, 18th June, 1907.

Sir,

I have to acknowledge receipt of your letter of 15th instant (No.2276/1907), and in reply beg to state that the regular lines trading between this Colony and London and Antwerp quote the same rates of freight on similar goods to both ports.

The same system applies in Shanghai, as shewn by the enclosed Freight Report taken from the "North China Herald" of the 7th instant. I may mention that the Northern Continental Ports referred to therein include Havre, Bremen, Antwerp and Hamburg.

I trust the above information will meet your requirements.

I am,

Dear Sir,

Your obedient servant,

(Sd.) E. A. Hewett,

Chairman.

The Honourable

The Colonial Secretary,
